Middletown, Delaware Nov 25, 2022 (Issuewire.com) - At the Third Artificial Intelligence Summit “IA Colombia” in Bogotá (November 16) Jean García Periche, President of GENIA Latinomerica, formally announced the launch of the “LATAM 4.0” coalition; which brings together companies, universities, governments, and civil society organizations to create the regional ecosystem of the Fourth Industrial Revolution in Latin America.
By making LATAM 4.0 official, GENIA revealed the implementation axes that accompany this initiative. Focusing on its objective of turning Latin America into a producer of industry 4.0 and a world power in the development of autonomous technologies and systems, the group encouraged the public to join the Latin American Council of Innovation and Knowledge (CLIC) and invited them to join its network. of artificial intelligence laboratories #YoSoyFuturo.
The Summit was attended by the Minister of Information Technology and Communications (ICT) of Colombia, Dr. Sandra Urrutia, who mentioned the government’s interest in “seeking the potential of the knowledge society to generate equality and productivity”, in front of a group of diverse leaders from the private sector and civil society.
“We are implementing a Regional Artificial Intelligence Strategy to create a network of expert talent in Latin America, based on the criteria that only through a regional approach can we scale our industries. No country in isolation is going to be able to face this challenge”, affirmed García Periche, emphasizing that “Industry 4.0 will be regional, or it will not be.”
GENIA, the technology startup founded at the NASA Research Center in Silicon Valley, currently works in 8 countries, teaming up with multiple scientific research institutions, and developing custom machine learning.
“We call on the main leaders in Latin America to join LATAM 4.0 to attract investment and guarantee the participation of our organizations in the development of the algorithms that lead the new economy. GENIA designs systems that take advantage of this opportunity worth more than 500 billion dollars, because it recognizes the power of artificial intelligence, its public benefit, and the value of a market of almost 670 million inhabitants…”, added Felipe Castro Quiles, CEO of GENIA Latin America.
This project paves the way for a necessary transformation of socioeconomic development models towards the new era. LATAM 4.0 is already a reality. To learn more about this and other initiatives, visit genia.ai
